Seconded. M1 Air, 8GB, Big Sur and no such issues for ~1 year. Maybe a leak in a Max/Pro-specific kernel component? I assume Control Center depends on some hardware-specific kernel modules.

You can easily store the blockchain (which is mostly historical data, ie. “empty accounts”) on an old (rotational) HDD because you access it in a sequential manner, which is fine for old HDDs. It’s only the set of “non-empty accounts” ( uns

But the article is specifically about looking stupid. The point being, as I understand it, that you should avoid being stupid but not looking stupid.

Not as far as I can see. > The Intel Core i9-12900K operates with 16 cores and 24 CPU threads. It run at 5.30 GHz base 5.00 GHz all cores while the TDP is set at 125 W. https://cpu-comparison.com/intel-core-i9-12900k&#x2F

Thank you for the thorough explanation. Why can’t Rosetta 2 do the x86-to-ARM JIT translation inside the “Docker for Mac” VM instead of using the (presumably slower) QEMU emulation? Or is QEMU smart enough to do the same translation that Ro

But does it support running x86 Docker images using hardware emulation? This is what's holding me off buying one since I don't know whether to get 16 GB RAM (if it doesn't work) or 32 GB RAM (if it does work).

Ah, sorry. I didn't mean building, just running with x86 hardware emulation.

The Intel CPU is pretty underwhelming. It has twice the number of high performance cores (16 vs 8) but is only 37% faster for multi-core tasks.

What makes you think that?

Does the M1 Pro/Max support running/building x86 Docker images using x86 hardware emulation? As as developer, this is the feature I've missed the most after having used my M1 MacBook Air for about a year.

by runeks 5y ago
The problem with inflation is that it can amplify itself. Most people know this, and think of the way people hoard e.g. gasoline if they know a price rise is imminent. This amounts to hoarding a consumer good, ie. the outputs of production.

Bear in mind that the chart covers a 20-year period. A 56% rise in prices over 20 years is 2.25% per year. Why doesn't it make sense to you that this particular basket of goods can rise in price, on average, 2.25% pear year while indiv

Zero fees? In crypto, there's an inverse correlation between on-chain fees and price volatility. So either you incur high on-chain fees or accept a high exchange rate risk.
